Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Well,I don`t usually leave my rig anywhere but I did this time and I guess I picked a low spot.Heard the back of my trailer is surrounded by a pond. Last time I leave my stuff anywhere!
And I`m crossing my fingers that river doesn`t over flow tonight! |
Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Like we talked about last week, you can blame me, Adam! My rig is there too. I am near the Pires family. I'll be there tomorrow morning. I hope I'm not stuck in the muck.

Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
whats the current situation? still raining? are rigs still stacking in the staging lanes?

Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
We got to the track around 8:30 and were told that they were done for the night with parking because the grounds were drenched. We parked in the staging lanes and left the trailer in the lanes till the AM (I'm up traveling w/ a friend). Looks like rain till about early morning then letting up around 12 to a 30% back at 5pm.
Staging lanes were pretty wet with 2 pretty large puddles forming |
Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
10:19 pm still raining very hard. TV station said the Albany area has gotten 11 1/2" of rain since May 1st. Rigs currently being staged in the lanes. Don't know how things are going to happen tomorrow with all the standing water everywhere.

Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Well, it hasn't rained here in three months, but we haven't had a racetrack in that long either.
I guess you have to take the bad with the good. Good luck ,everybody! |
Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Good luck everyone. I won't be able to be there until Saturday. I was in North Adams today(20 miles from the Valley), at a farm I sell to they said they had 13 inches of rain in the last three weeks!!

Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
Thanks for the updates guys, we will be coming up Saturday morning .
I'll be monitoring this thread constantly for track and parking conditions. Hope everyone can get there and race. Thanks again guys! |
Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
My rig and car are there , we have been told this morning they will park us where they have room , if we get stuck they will pull us out sunday . BS on this I call the track yesterday and Heather answering the phones assured me they had enough parking on gravel for everyone . This race should have been canceled , flooded pit area , flash flood warning untill sat and more rain this afternoon . In the past I would pay the fee , tech the cars and leave but not now .On to Epping and I would advise all others to do the same. No matter what happens we won't get all our runs. , cars will be full of mud and your rig will be stuct or muddy . Un-Happy customer

Re: Live from Lebanon Valley - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
I feel your pain....but a foot of rain over the last month or so...not a whole lot you
can do with that.... I applaud NHRA's efforts to try and squeeze this one in...given the "window" that seems to be forecast...looks like a tough task to say the least.... Good luck to everyone concerned there...and have a little PATIENCE! Ditto on those moving on to Epping...and hopefully better conditions... |
